OUR STORY
Francesca Elliott
We’re here for the same reason as you – we love beautiful jewellery. We love the way it looks and we love the way it makes us feel. We’ve ended up with so many gorgeous pieces we just had to start sharing.
To us, jewellery is about expression. We’ve gathered together these beautiful objects so that you can express yourself through them. Vintage Jewellery isn’t dictated by the trends of today, it is timeless and it is classic. When you express yourself with one of these pieces you bring a part of history to life with your own unique style and sense of self. It is our goal to bring together the beauty of the past and your own self-expression.
COLLECTIONS
Francesca Elliott
Buying vintage can be intimidating, but wearing it feels amazing. When you buy online, there is uncertainty in condition, price, and authenticity and this can be overwhelming. We have used our expertise and passion to curate these collections for you so that you can find the best that vintage costume jewellery has to offer, all in one place. We are here to take away all the risk and guesswork of buying vintage jewellery by delivering you the most beautiful pieces out there in the best condition possible.
Our collection stretches back to the 1930’s and features pieces from throughout the 20th Century. We specialise in the work of Christian Dior and the designers that he commissioned, but we don’t let that stop us from picking up other classics and rare pieces when we can.
Because this jewellery is vintage, with many pieces over fifty years old, some may have minor blemishes or signs of use. Whilst we try our best to find pieces in perfect condition some are just too beautiful to let a small blemish put us off. You can find an in-depth description of our condition scale here and if you have any other questions just email us or message us on instagram.

“Buying vintage can be intimidating, but wearing it feels amazing”
We would never put a piece up that we wouldn’t want to wear ourselves, but if there is something you are unhappy with when your item arrives, we operate a no regrets, full refund returns policy. If you are happy with your piece then our Chief Style Officer will be in touch with tips on how to wear it, how to care for it and exclusive offers and events for returning FE customers.

Sustainability
Francesca Elliott
We all need to do our bit to limit emissions and reduce waste. Fashion is a highly wasteful industry. We believe the future of fashion is circular and when you wear vintage you play your part in bringing that future to life.
To do our bit we ensure that our packaging is as sustainable as it possibly can be. Your jewellery will arrive in a recycled Francesca Elliott cardboard postal box, nestled inside one of bespoke veegan suede pouches.
